STRUGGLE

Ain't got a dollar to my name and everything ain't everything

I say the struggle is real
If you're going through the same thing

So tired of ducking these bills
Looking for change
'Cause the struggle is real
I been through the pain
The struggle is real
And I'm convinced I'm insane
Enslaved by the ways of the world
I'm praying 'cause the struggle is real

Bills due up on the first and the third, yeah

Still losing like a curse, it get worse
And I'm running out of work
All my shit up on the curb, yeah
Like I got no worth
Wish I could fly off like a bird, yeah

Every way ain't never dark on my horizon

Every day ain't never struggle, I'm surviving
Trying to escape, no place to hide in
I'm just trying to get away, that's why I'm hiding
Reflecting back on bad decisions
Had to have them bitches
I was smoking, drinking, bad intentions
Had no intervention
I was lost and losing everything is the cost
Had to learn what it feel like at the bottom

Ain't got a dollar to my name and everything ain't everything

I say the struggle is real
If you're going through the same thing

So tired of ducking these bills
Looking for change
'Cause the struggle is real
I been through the pain
The struggle is real
And I'm convinced I'm insane
Enslaved by the ways of the world
I'm praying 'cause the struggle is real

What you know 'bout fucking balling on a budget?
Said my EBT declined, well shit then, fuck it
Look like we eating ramen noodles tonight
And fuck Georgia Power 'cause them bitches turned off the lights
Said they tired of me lying and not paying it on time
And the bills past due and wasn't shit that they could do

I guess that I done ran out of time
Only thing I know to do is hit the block and go and grind

I tell you boy, the struggle is real
I'm out here risking all these felonies to pay a couple bills
One day I hope my music finally pop
'Til then I'm out here ducking all these motherfucking cops

Ain't got a dollar to my name and everything ain't everything

I say the struggle is real
If you're going through the same thing

So tired of ducking these bills
Looking for change
'Cause the struggle is real
I been through the pain
The struggle is real
And I'm convinced I'm insane
Enslaved by the ways of the world
I'm praying 'cause the struggle is real

Enslaved by the ways of the world
I'm praying 'cause the struggle is real
